Good (car restoration) buisness idea?

Oct 06, 2008 by Bill | Posted in Small Business

I have visited some websites that offer car retorations on muscle cars, exotics, ext. Is car restoration a good buisness to start these days because I have always wanted to own my own buisness some day. And how much does an average car restoration shop

My friends opened a restoration shop in Mesa,AZ 5 years ago. They are still going. They had 4 Corvettes to work on in the beginning. That was what the customers wanted. One of the cars had $90,000 worth of work before it came to my friend's shop.

Car guy goes from private to county shop

21.11.11

Dave Knaff doesn't remember many times in his life when he wasn't tinkering around with autos in some fashion or another.

Today, he does a bit more than just tinker in his job running the one-man auto body repair shop at the Flathead County Road and Bridge Department.

The Kalispell resident has worked for the county for about eight months, but his auto body work resume is long.

He owned Reflections Auto Body in Kalispell for 19 years. Last year he closed the doors to his business.

"Everybody talks about the economy, but it was true for us," Knaff said. Business slowed to a level he simply couldn't keep the shop open any longer.

"The downturn really hurt us and I don't think it's over yet," he said.

Knaff works on all county vehicles for every department. One day he may paint a water truck used by road and bridge department employees and the next day he may install the light bars on a new car for the Sheriff's Office.

He has painted dump trucks and a portable compressor, has installed radios in gravel trucks and pulled dashboards from sheriff's cars and installed new ones with all the needed equipment. He paints sheriff's vehicles frequently with their various striping and logos.
